In our rush to seek our fame and fortune, we often forget that there are underlying forces that can guide us into making ideal decisions that can turn the tides of the universe in our favour for a more successful outlook in our lives. Thus, the saying: ‘being at the right place and at the right time’ rings true here. The concept behind Date Selection in the context of Feng Shui is simple: the objective is to carry out an event based on the best date in a calendar that can begin and end on a positive and beneficial note for the intended individual.
Hence, it is about using the information collected over the centuries by Chinese scholars, astronomers and philosophers, to pin-point a window of opportunity and time to conduct an activity or an endeavor with hopes of achieving a successful outcome.
Such activities and events can include planning for a wedding, giving birth, starting a new business or even moving into a new house. Take for example the timely process of selecting a date for a business opening. Ideally, the best date when a business should commence is on the day when the Wealth Stars are perfectly aligned on said date. This fortunate alignment of the stars and the universe will then be able to bless the opening of the business profusely and will send cash registers ringing – which is always a good sign for any business, indeed.
However, there is often some general confusion in what constitutes an “opening” of a business. As there are numerous processes that one goes through in setting up a business, Date Selection specialists would use the day that you cut the red ribbon and is officially open for business to the general public as the official opening gate.
Other processes such as selecting a date to apply for a business license or signing an agreement contract for rental or purchasing signage for the business is and should not be regarded as the official opening date.
Now you may wonder why then, when I sign for a marriage license I am henceforth considered legally married, but when I legally register my business, it is not considered the starting point for the business? That is because the registration of a business merely indicates the intent to start a business and thus, does not involve any monetary transactions or providing services to any customers yet.
The same argument applies to your marriage license as it generally does not indicate intent to get married but is considered the actual point in this time and date that you are considered married.
Thus, this Chinese tradition is often conducted to help business owners select the most compatible day and time for this auspicious occasion and to bless the people involved in finding success. To boost the business’s success more, business owners should also consider other aspects of Feng Shui which will help highlight the location of the business, its design and layout as well as the entrance of said business. When all these work in unison, the business will then be considered a success.
Time and tide wait for no man or woman. That is why traditional Date Selection has often been used to synchronize human activities with the powerful forces of nature for better living. While it is unfortunate that its status today has more than often relegated to mere superstition by the masses, there are always the exception of a few who know how to take advantage of this revered tool to succeed in life and in business.
